bookmark_borderSuggestions on a postcard too…
It’s Louise’s birthday at the weekend. Needless to say it’s been at the back of my mind over the past week and, whilst I have a specific present in mind, I’m struggling for a couple of little bits and bobs.
I’ve got her a couple of books, DVDs, CDs etc, and her main present (I won’t mention what it is as she reads this site (sight?) occasionally). So, come on girlies, what would you appreciate? Perfume? Flowers? A new apron… (kidding!), jewellery? I’m looking for a few items in the £10-£20 price range, any suggestions are welcomed!
bookmark_borderCatching up
Well I’ll spend most of the evening playing catch up, so for the meantime, here’s a little bit of nonsense: Icon War (a short animation of a desktop at war!)
bookmark_borderIt's a beautiful day
The sun is shining, the birds are singing.
She’s home.
The consultant saw her yesterday and said she could go home. Still need to do some ‘bloods’, and she’s still popping painkillers (no longer requires morphine just paracetemol) but she’s home.
For the third of fourth time, thank you to everyone who passed on their best wishes. Your comments, emails and advice DID help both of us, and were hugely appreciated.
bookmark_borderCaution is the watch word
Good news. After a ‘relapse’ of sorts she is much much much better today. Looking like she will be discharged on Monday as they want to keep her in tomorrow just to make sure. The sight of her sitting up in bed, smiling and not holding her side and grimacing in pain is… well… hard to put into words, but relief springs into mind.
She had another X-ray and the consultant thinks that it has been a combination of severe internal bruising after her operation last week, and a slight blockage in stomach. The blockage showed up on the first X-ray, but has gone on the second X-ray so it seems like she is on the mend.
Excuse the tone of caution but I thought she was doing OK a couple of days ago only to find her in tears the next morning. This time, however, it seems to be fixed. My angel is coming home!
bookmark_borderDammit
It’s cruel. She had a good night, had breakfast (tea and toast) and then it started all over again. Looks like she will be in over the weekend with still no real idea what is wrong.
